Bikeowner posted a topic in For Sale and Wanted - Motorbike related,
£1350

Lots of work done on it before I bought it, fork seals, new tyres etc
New stator, carbs cleaned out with rebuild kit, new engine oil and filter. It's got a decent battery, good swinging arm and a lovely classic headlamp.
There is a bit of wear in the gearbox and one front caliper sticks a bit but frees off with use.
lots of spares, crash bars, engine bits, radiator , downpipes and it has a windshield as well.
Don't know what its worth but selling cheap as I need it gone to make space

2 X As New Triumph Bike Jackets At Stupidly Cheap Price
learningtofly posted a topic in For Sale and Wanted - Motorbike related,
The first is the Beinn GTX, which you can find here. It's a superb technical jacket with Gore-Tex inner jacket (which can be worn on its own) and a myriad of features - do read the description in the link.
The second is another Gore-Tex jacket, this time the T1 Deck. The details of this one can be found here (just scroll down a bit for the spec), but again it's a beautifully crafted jacket, with multiple season use.
At retail the combined priced would be £1050. I was lucky enough to pick them up in the sale, though, and am now prepared to let them go as a pair for just £275 F2F, or £285 delivered. I haven't posted photos of them hanging from a door handle (but can if you really want me to) - they're in perfect condition and complete with all the armour that they came with.

Modifications and insurance
Throttled posted a topic in Motorbike Chat,
The bike came with dealer fitted heated grips (they are Oxford, not Kawasaki) and I have fitted a side stand puck, a larger screen, crash bungs and a Kayoko cruise control. Is that the kind of thing I should declare and if so, how much of a difference will it make? They are all mods for comfort, not speed.

Watching the 2022 Isle of Man TT
Admin posted a topic in Motorbike news,
Brace yourselves, riders, race fans, and raconteurs! The most magnificent week on the motorcycling calendar is upon us! The astounding ballet of courage and velocity that is the Isle of Man TT will soon play out before our very eyes on the thirty-seven-and-three-quarter-mile, two-hundred-sixty-plus-turn Snaefell Mountain course, a track so very long, so absolutely epic, that we had to write those numbers out to do it justice. And this year, unlike all previous runnings, you may bear witness to the gallantry of the riders in real time, thanks to the monumental efforts of the Isle of Man TT itself, which presents to you the stupendous, or at the very least remarkably handy and useful, TT+ Live Pass.
Peter Hickman ended qualifying with a lock on the Superbike class, lapping at an impressive 132.874 mph. Dynastic talent Michael Dunlop leads the Superstock, Supersport, and Supertwin leaderboards. (Courtesy of Isle of Man TT/)
For a one-time payment of $24.99, fans can now view all the races live for the first time in TT history, thanks to a team-up between the IoMTT and Vimeo. All hyperbole aside, this is a remarkable deal; there are already 25 hours of high-quality video available on the site, and qualifying is not even over yet.
The live coverage features multiple on-course cameras, coverage by camera teams in two helicopters, and commentary by a full roster of top talent including the seasoned Isle of Man team of Matt Roberts and Amy Williams, plus F1 vet Jennie Gow in her debut year. Pretty much the only thing that’s missing is live on-bike footage; that was likely a little too much to hope for in the livestream’s debut year, but look for miles and miles worth of rider POV in the wrap-ups. For live timing, scoring, and breaking news, visit iomttraces.com.

Don't be a statistic.
Throttled posted a topic in Motorbike Chat,
https://news.stv.tv/scotland/police-scotland-superintendent-stewart-mackies-warning-over-motorcyclist-bikers-death-statistics
"A police officer has urged fellow motorcyclists to exercise caution on roads over the weekend as Scotland is set to enjoy warm weather.
Superintendent Stewart Mackie, a keen biker, issued the warning as it was revealed 90% of motorcyclist casualties are male.
The deputy chief of road policing said a third of those killed in motorcycle crashes are aged between 40 and 49, and a marked increase in motorbike ownership in recent months may be due to people returning to biking after many years.
He added that more than 85% of motorbike crashes occur in rural areas and can happen in the daytime and in good weather. "

MCE CANCELLING ALL POLICIES
daveinlim posted a topic in Motorbike Chat,
Your policy of insurance is underwritten (or is provided to you) by the Company, which is in Administration. The Company’s permission to write insurance was suspended on 5 November 2021.
Due to the financial position of the Company, the Joint Administrators intention is to disclaim all motor bike and scooter insurance policies as at 24:00hrs (being midnight) on Monday, 31 January 2022.
This means that when your policy of insurance is disclaimed, your insurance policy will cease or, in other words, end.
This means that you will need to seek and put in place alternative insurances prior to your policy being disclaimed on 31 January 2022.
Up until your policy is disclaimed, and on the basis that you are fully complying with the terms and conditions of your policy of insurance, your policy will remain valid. No adjustments will be permitted to your policy from today except for administrative adjustments which do not affect the risk associated with the policy of insurance – such as correction to the spelling of a name for example.
